1. Following https://esp32.com/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=3834 and https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/1351 updated information regarding selection of the main XTAL frequency. 2. Removed obsolete note about ': not a valid identifier...', as it does not show up anymore with the latests MSYS2 installation.
